Beginner ON 2003 hyperlinks question
Paul 3/10/2007 8:59:08 PM
Sorry, I'm a bit of a beginner with OneNote 2003. Can I add a hyperlink to
text or graphics, I was expecting something like the add/edit hyperlink
functions of Word/Outlook 2003? So far the only way I've been able to insert
hyperlinks is to type the url onto the page.

However, in the 'Helpful tips' section Microsoft has included text with
attached hyperlinks e.g. the text "Visit OneNote on Microsoft Office Online"
is shown in html hyperlink style and links to
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/onenote/default.aspx. If I hold the mouse
pointer over the text I get a tooltip showing the attached url. I can even
copy/cut the text into another page and the hyperlink comes too, so it can be
done. How can I attach urls to my own text (and hopefully graphics) and edit
ones already there?

I found a bit of the Microsoft site saying that to attach a hyperlink to text
it needs to be edited in Word 2003 or Frontpage 2003 (don't know what you'd
do if you had neither installed) and paste it back in. SP1 has a handy Send
to Word option but oddly you can't save (or send) it back, it still has to be
copied and pasted over the original. Surely it would have been more useful to
be able to do this in Onenote itself or to be able to use word to directly
edit Onenote notes.

I probably haven't developed a 'OneNote' way of thinking yet, but this does
seem a bit clumbsy.
